My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2517

The car came to a stop, after which Jared and Nicole got out of the car and made their way into the

living room of Riddle family manor.

Mr. Riddle Sr. was sitting alone in the living room when he heard Jared and Nicole opening the door

and entering the manor.

"You're here! Come have a seat," Mr. Riddle Sr. greeted.

"Grandpa, why are you alone?" Nicole asked with a hint of confusion in her voice as she ranged her

gaze across the room for people.

"Alfred went out to run some errands. I'm perfectly fine by myself. Please have a seat,' Mr. Riddle Sr.

informed.

"There must be something of a matter, seeing that the two of you are here," Mr. Riddle Sr. probed.

"Wow, Grandpa. I must give it to you. How did you know?" Nicole playfully stated.

Mr. Riddle Sr looked at Nicole, and that was when he replied, "How can I word this? Every time you're

here without Nolan and Lana, I'll definitely suspect that something must have happened."

'Nicole would usually bring her kids over. Her not doing so meant trouble,' Mr. Riddle Sr. surmised.

Hearing that, a stern expression crossed Nicole's face."

Grandpa? You're still as sharp as ever. You've heard about NandoCorp, haven't you?"

Mr. Riddle Sr. nodded. "Are you suggesting we participate in the auction?"

Nicole was pleased to know that Mr. Riddle Sr. had understood her intentions at once. "Yes, that's the

initial plan. If you agree, then I will do so but if you don't, then I won't."

"How can I disagree? If I don't agree that would mean I'm just holding you back from reaching your

fullest potential," Mr. Riddle Sr. replied with a sigh in the end.

'NandoCorp was initially a part of Riddle Corporation, but now, the situation requires that we use our

resources to regain NandoCorp.' Nicole shook her head as she thought about it.

"That's a different story. NandoCorp belongs to Uncle Damien. However, once we've acquired it from

them, it will be our family's once more," Nicole said.

She did not care much about anything, for she had only one mission, and that was to acquire the

company back so that it would be hers to own.

"You have quite an insight," Mr. Riddle Sr. complimented, feeling relieved that Nicole had a complete

grasp of whatever was going on.

"Thanks Grandpa!" Nicole beamed, dead set on acquiring NandoCorp after getting Mr. Riddle Sr. 's

support.

There was a long pause ensued, and after that, Mr. Riddle Sr. spoke up and asked, "Now that

NandoCorp and DillCorp are going to be a part of our company once more, what are your plans for it?

Can I get to know what your views on this are?”

"I'm not quite sure what exactly my plan is for now, but what I can say is that I'll do my best in whatever

way I can." Nicole smirked.

Hearing that made Mr. Riddle Sr. a little worried for Nicole, however. 'There's a chance she might not

be able to acquire NandoCorp with ease, knowing how she said she would try her best...'

"Just go and try your best. We can talk about the rest later," Mr. Riddle Sr. encouraged.

He knew that Nicole was really antsy about acquiring NandoCorp, and at that moment, easing her

anxiety was all he could do.

"I think what you said was right. Right now, we'll have to go and do some research. We can only stand

to benefit by doing so," El la r said, his voice echoing through the room as he walked in.

"What are you doing here?" Nicole asked, surprised by Ellar's appearance.

She did not tell anyone that she was visiting Mr. Riddle Sr. and had made her way here on her own to

seek his advice.

"I heard that you came to the family manor, so I came over, knowing what was going on. It's a good

thing I arrived in time to catch you," Ellar said as he took a seat.

"What's the matter?" Nicole asked, puzzled as to why Ellar had to catch her in the middle of a chat. From NôvelDrama.Org.

"It's regarding NandoCorp actually. I overheard what you guys were talking about earlier but there's

something else and Grandpa happened to have brought it up earlier. You know, the whole deal with the

Riddle family and Riddle Corporation," Ellar shrugged.

Lost and unable to understand what Ellar was referring to, Nicole frowned, "What made you think so?"

He was afraid to witness NandoCorp and DillCorp falling back under Riddle Corporation's

management, and thus, he had reached out to BayCorp for assistance.

Ellar scratched his head, and with a tinge of embarrassment on his face, he continued, "Nicole, I don't

mean to go against you or anything. It's just an honest opinion."
